Rookie Jeff Teague, playing 15 of his 26 minutes in the second half, had 16 points and five assists for the Hawks (4-1), while Josh Smith and Joe Johnson both scored 13 points.

Former Augusta State star Garret Siler didn't get any minutes for the Hawks. Siler is vying for one of the two remaining spots on the roster when Atlanta opens the regular season against Indiana on Oct. 28.

Randy Foye, starting in place of the flu-ridden Gilbert Arenas, led the Wizards (3-3) with 19 points and six assists. Caron Butler added 14 points and Brendan Haywood had seven points and 10 rebounds in his return after missing three games with a sprained right ankle.

Joe Smith, in his first game for the Hawks this preseason, had two points and four rebounds and was called for four fouls in 14 minutes.

The Wizards shot 12.5 percent (1 of 8) from beyond the 3-point line in the first half and ended at 33.3 percent (6 of 18), while the Hawks hit all four of their 3-point attempts in the first quarter and finished at 57.1 percent.

Arenas remained at the team hotel with flulike symptoms. He was not expected to fly to Philadelphia with the team for today's game against the Sixers. Wizards coach Flip Saunders said Arenas would fly to Washington as soon as he was feeling better.
